Mr. Kazemeini-Boroujerdi cautions his family about visiting him

As a
part of the continued and ever increasing psychological pressures on Mr.
Hossein Kazemeini-Boroujerdi, on Saturday, April 12th when the
Kazemeini-Boroujerdi family appeared at Evin prison for a visit, agents of the
regime subjected them to harsh physical searches, and verbally abused and
insulted them.

Given
the ongoing abuse and vicious behavior, in an act of protest against the
regime’s agents, Mr. Boroujerdi announced that he will no longer put his family
through the indignity and that he will cease to visit with his family.

Following
this epidose, Mr. Kazemeini-Boroujerdi, who has also been deprived of receiving
any medical care or medication, fainted while bathing and was transferred by
fellow prison mates to the Evin infirmary where, once again, he was not
treated, and was moved back to his cell.

It is
important to mention that Mr. Boroujerdi is a freedom-seeking cleric who is
pro-Secularism and has been imprisoned for eight years and is suffering from
various illnesses that are ever worsening as a result of the regime’s refusal
to provide him with any medical treatment while in prison.

Human
Rights activists for Democracy in Iran, condemn these actions by the regime’s
agents and call upon the United Nations and various international human rights
organizations to address the continued human and civil rights violations of the
people of Iran at the hand of the regime of the Supreme Leader, Ali
Khamenei.
